You mean for you as a User? Not that I know. As far as I remember,
there are no serious security issues using the flash plugin (so it's
much better than having active-X, Java or JavaScript enabled).

There are some websites that don't work without flash, but I think
they are not worth installing the plugin ;-)

On the other hand, you will find a lot of nice online games or
interactive thingies that are done in flash, so I believe it's worth
installing the plugin if you are not a purely text-based user.
